Problem: Doris went to visit her husband, Carl, who was an inmate at a county jail. Since Carl had been complaining of a head cold for quite some time, Doris brought with her a decongestant she had purchased at the local pharmacy. When she removed the decongestant from her purse and handed it to Carl, she was immediately placed into custody by the guards. She was charged with violating a state statute which made it a felony punishable by three to five years in state prison to "transport any item into a county jail facility containing more that 5% alcohol." The decongestant was found to contain 10% alcohol. At trial Doris testified that she did not believe that the decongestant actually contained alcohol. Should Doris be found guilty of the charged crime?
